Went to Lim Chu Kang again but different area to fish. It is much more productive... well anyway we ate breakfast outside. We went inside armed with catfish, two multipliers and three reels. We cast out. My father was the first to reel back a Toman. 1.5kg on the scales. I played popping for about half an hour before leaving it and took my handline. I attached a large catfish and loooked around as there were various spots. I went to a secluded area at a drain but i didn cast out as my fathers friends wife had a bite. suddenly her drag screamed. her line moved away. She reeled back a baby toman. couldn wait. I cast out and waited as she went to dig for worms as that was the last catfish. Suddenly, I heard a buzzing sound. my line was paying. Shit. I pulled back as the fish was going underneath the grass. Worse I was using a handline. It was a 20 minutes fight as I finally reeled back my catch. It was a 3kg snakehead. That size was RARE. Hahar. Pictures for your browsing.

Fishing in Lim Chu Kang
Went to Lim Chu Kang freshwater area to fish. You dont need an offroad vehicle but you gotta trek in. It is one hell of a dangerous. You are at the side of the river and you gotta walk over a pipe and fish from there. I nearly fell in myself; but we were rewarded for our efforts. We got two baby Toman, and a proper 4kg Toman.The baby Toman were hooked on an eel rig while the bigger one took the popper.

Tanah Merah Fishing part 2
I have really come to love this place. theres all sorts of fishes here. Just went on an overnight fishing trip. We arrived at the area at about 4.30 and started fishing. No fish. I pulled the leader up, and changed the bait to a live prawn. Not even after 5 min, the rod bent. I pulled, alas, the fish went in between the stones and i could not retrieve it.(shit) I broke the line and used a metal rig. I cast the rod again then went out on the offroad vehicle(honestly, i drove.) to fetch other people in. When I came back in(i didn use the offroad vehicle. this time, i used an ATV.) Once I reached there, I reeled my line back in. No fish. Rig gone. I tied a float, cast it and went to sleep as it was about 3 am. Woke up about 4.30, still no fish. I then used a bounce and retrieve Pioneer rig. At last, results. I caught a medium-sized catfish. The night dragged on, leaving me with a 5kg snapper and a 3kg catfish. I caught during the night so i couldn take any photos. In the morning, we used a spinnerbait as it was high tide and there were loads of fish. Unfortunately, noone caught any. This is one of the best fishing trips I had.
